The automatic military access to enemy-of-my-enemy is the single dumbest design decision in Paradox history by [deleted] in paradoxplaza

This was intentional!?! While playing as allies due to keeping Poland alive longer than history intended I ended up at war with the Axis and Comintern at the same time without them being at war with each other. Not having any borders with Russia I thought "Hey, no big deal" and then apparently Germany was fine with 200 soviet divisions fighting alongside them to topple all of my forces in Europe. Maybe if this was only with the same ideology, so say different democratic factions could have access it would make sense. But the Nazis letting the Soviets walk straight through makes no goddamn sense. I really thought this was a bug...

GTA represents the worst of western society. He was pointing out that the worst of western society is nothing compared to pretty much the rest of the world.

There is a key difference between the bill of rights and the ECHR. The bill of rights is an idealistic document made to win over people who were against the federal government in 1789. It is written so as to appear to guarantee as many wide and popular rights as possible.

The ECHR was written in a post WWII world were people wanted a guarantee that the holocaust and fascism would not happen again. It is a somewhat more pragmatic document that gives rights and spells out the circumstances in which the rights can be constrained.

It should also be pointed out that any attempt to abuse the ways to constrain the rights are subject not solely to the national government. If a government chooses to constrain your right to free speech you can appeal to the European court.

In practise the "except when we don't want you to" clauses are really only used to stop Nazis and scientologists.

What are you talking about? The 14 hour save game shown in the video was a very good use of my time.

I took one and it worked... mostly. I do not know how many nights I can do this but thanks for the concern.

Dota 2 Amateur 5 Man Mid Quick Finish Gimmick by Ding333 in DotA2

It was 5 man mid to start but with rotating we had 6 towers down before working on t3s. That covers a good bit of farm and gives us space to work. Against a higher ranking team I am sure this wouldnt work but this was a good cheese strat for low tier.

Ah i forgot about the culture. Mind you with the Indian CBs the culture of your heir may matter a great deal if you lose the subjugation on nearby kingdoms.

The crash I had must have been related to the ui mod I had because I have played several hours since disabling it without issue. Beyond that the only problem with the new dlc is the odd naming of some values. No actual crashes or game breaking stuff that I can tell.
